Draw for first round of Front-pin Knockout has been made with 54 teams entering this season's competition. The big draw of this round must be the all-Prem clash between top-flight Avengers and current title-holders and newly-promoted Bridgetown however Avengers captain Tony Nash may have a slight advantage with the choice of "home" alley. A couple of the other Premier sides have drawn tricky "away" ties and the next round will definately feature eight teams from Division 3 and below who have all drawn byes. Ties for this first round are to be played by Sunday 19th October. |

The divisions, fixtures etc have been arranged for the 2008/09 season. This season there are no "byes" in the league as all seven divisions have a full quota of 16 teams in each.
We welcome The Better Half, Not Double-Ds, and Wotton Wags into Division 6. Last season's rookies Oceans 8 have reformed as The Rogues.
This season, games in week 2 (commencing 15th September) are also the first round of the Bob Green Memorial Trophy (All-in Cup). The draw for the first round of the Front-pin Knockout will be made in the very near future.
Captains are reminded that Good Friday falls on 10th April 2009 with Easter Monday falling on 13th April 2009 - if you have, and are unable to play fixtures on either of these dates then you must make every effort to arrange the fixture to be played during the 3-week Christmas break, on a neutral alley if necessary. |

As an outcome of the AGM, new rule 12 (relating to unplayed fixtures) and new rule 29 (relating to end of season awards) have been added. |
